Abstract: | We present the synthesis, structure, and magnetic properties of the novel borate LaNiB3O7 – the first magnetically ordered compound reported in the CaAlB3O7 structure type. This material is made of alternating sheets of corner-sharing borate tetrahedra and planes of La and Ni ions, with distorted nickel oxide [NiO6] octahedra and lanthanum oxide [LaO10] polyhedra. Temperature-dependent magnetic susceptibility data reveal dominantly antiferromagnetic interactions and an antiferromagnetic transition with a Néel temperature of 19 K, confirmed by specific heat data. The magnetic moment per nickel ion is 3.06 μB. This compound uncovers a new family of rare-earth transition-metal borates to probe for magnetic interactions. |
